What Customers Say

Owners of the Frame Pro describe a set that earns its place on the wall: in Art Mode it passes for a framed print, the matte screen is repeatedly singled out for killing reflections in bright, window-filled rooms, and one 65-inch owner adds that the picture holds up from the side as well as head-on. The mini-LED panel draws praise for brightness, vivid colour and first-class blacks, the built-in sound is described as better than expected for a set this slim, and the Wireless One Connect box wins over most owners, several of whom mention seamless streaming and a tidy single-cable wall. Set-up with the included bracket is called easy, and owners moving up from an older Frame say the picture and the Art Mode interface are both clear improvements. Owner reviews are pooled across the 65-inch, 75-inch and 85-inch Frame Pro, so the reviews here cover the whole range.

The repeated complaints are that the Wireless One Connect box can drop its link or warn about range even a few metres from the screen, that the Tizen software can turn sluggish over time, and that the Art Store's wider catalogue is a paid subscription with persistent prompts to sign up.

For a buyer who wants the Frame's picture-frame design with a properly bright, high-contrast mini-LED picture and a cable-free wall, the Frame Pro is the version to buy; anyone who cannot place the wireless box within a short, clear line of sight of the screen should think carefully before choosing it over the standard Frame.

Who Should Buy This

  • Design-led living rooms wanting a large TV that reads as art
  • Bright, window-filled rooms needing a matte anti-glare screen
  • Wall-mounters wanting no cable to the screen except power
  • Console gamers wanting a high refresh rate on every HDMI input
  • HDR viewers wanting a mini-LED backlight behind the matte screen

Who Should Skip It

  • Film fans wanting OLED-level blacks for dark-room viewing
  • Dolby Vision viewers wanting that HDR format on streaming and discs
  • Homes where the wireless box cannot sit close to the screen
  • Buyers who want every piece of artwork included in the price

What Experts Says

Overall Assessment and Positioning

The Samsung QE65LS03FW is the 65-inch model of the 2025 The Frame Pro, the Neo QLED tier of Samsung's picture-frame television. It keeps the matte screen, Art Mode and flush wall mount of the standard Frame but swaps the edge-lit QLED panel for a Quantum Matrix mini-LED backlight, the NQ4 AI Gen2 processor for the Gen3, and the wired One Connect box for a wireless one, which places it at the top of the Frame line and alongside Samsung's mainstream Neo QLEDs on picture hardware.

Key Strengths and Standout Features

The 4K Neo QLED panel carries a matte anti-reflective finish, Supreme UHD Dimming and Neo Quantum HDR with HDR10+ Adaptive, HDR10+ Gaming, HDR10 and HLG playback, with the NQ4 AI Gen3 processor handling 4K AI upscaling. The stated refresh rate is 144Hz, with Motion Xcelerator 144Hz and 4K at 144Hz on every HDMI 2.1 input, alongside ALLM, HGiG, Game Motion Plus, an AI Auto Game Mode and the Gaming Hub for cloud services. One HDMI carries eARC, and USB-A and USB-C ports, an optical output, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.3 and Ethernet complete the connections, all housed in the Wireless One Connect box that sends picture and sound to the screen without a cable, so only power reaches the wall. Audio is a 40 W 2.0.2-channel system with Object Tracking Sound, Dolby Atmos decoding, Adaptive Sound Pro and Q-Symphony for a matching Samsung soundbar. A built-in DVB-T2, DVB-C and DVB-S2 tuner with a CI+ slot covers UK broadcast viewing, and Tizen runs the streaming apps with Alexa and SmartThings built in.

Value Proposition and Who It's Best Suited For

This is the Frame for a buyer who wants the design without the picture compromise: a 24.9 mm deep chassis weighing 21.8 kg that mounts on a 400 x 300 mm bracket, with a mini-LED backlight that gives it the brightness and contrast the standard Frame lacks. The stated G energy class, 112 W on-mode draw in SDR and 155 kWh a year are on the high side for a 65-inch set and worth budgeting for. The honest qualifications are the absence of Dolby Vision, the reliance on a wireless link that needs the box within a short, clear line of sight of the screen, and a price well above the standard 65-inch Frame. Buyers who want a large screen that disappears into the room, copes with daylight and still delivers a punchy HDR picture will find it the strongest set in the Frame line; anyone who only wants the look, or who cannot house the wireless box near the screen, is better served by the standard Frame.
